Give player in start position 1 generals powers in multiplayer

This has been driving me mad.
Im trying to create a multiplayer map whereby whoever starts in start position 1 gets the paradrop ability straight away.
If possible id like to give them the use of the ability 6/7 times and then they have to wait for the timer as you would normally have to.
(im trying to build a DDAY landing multiplayer map)
I tried to make the units appear by using reinforcements and have them paradropped in but this just didn't work at all and I decided it would be more fun for the player to be able to select where the dropzone would be.
Any ideas?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

it should be possible as a civilian paradrop followed by a team transfer.
Then again multiplayer maps can mess up all kinds of stuff. |

You could just have a script: Code:
If {
ThisPlayer enters area
}
Then {
Unlock Paradrop for that player
}
If you give it "Deactivate on success", it should do it just the once. You could also use a map.ini to change the special power so that it only takes a few seconds to recharge and use another script to take away the special power after a fixed amount of time Edited by user Thursday, February 23, 2017 12:42:56 PM(UTC)

Well that looks about right! - I remember trying something similar however in multiplayer games it didnt appear to work - have you had success with this in multiplayer and/or skirmish?
I will have a play with it soon :)

It's the free server I use. It's not very reliable. Seems to be working at the moment. |
